The Primary Source: A Database of Online Historical Archives

HSA's blog — The Primary Source: A Database of Online Historical Archives — is a database of online resources which provide access to primary source historical materials. Our goal is to provide history students with a resource with which to further engage with primary sources in their scholarly research and writing. By collecting as many online historical archives together as possible and properly labeling them according to period and area, we hope to create a useful tool that will help interested students find new and exciting primary sources to engage with. All users are invited to suggest new additions to the blog for administrative review and, if approved, inclusion. Further, users are encouraged to leave comments on each blog entry, detailing the archive's various strengths and weaknesses. In doing so, a collaborative community of history students is brought together and, we believe, a larger project of promoting and improving scholarly research and writing within our student body is begun.
